Abstract
【解決手段】 本発明の高出力光パルスの発生装置は、信号光を生成するファイバー発振器10と、非線形位相遅れをもち信号光を受光して増幅するとともに圧縮するソリトン・ラマン圧縮器(SRC)を兼ねた増幅ファイバー11と、増幅された光パルスを周波数変換して高出力光パルスとする周波数変換器であるPPLN(周期性ポーリングLiNbO3 )20とを有する。分散補償ファイバー18により分散が補償される。また、ファラデー回転鏡(FRM)19により光パルスが反射されてダブルパス形態を取っている。ポンプ16から注入されるポンプ光からのエネルギーを得て、信号光は増幅されるとともに圧縮され、PPLN周波数変換器20により周波数変換された波長で、フェムト秒台の高出力光パルスが得られる。
【選択図】 図1
Description
・PPLNにおける倍調波化過程の共振性
・パルスチャープに起因する影響
・結晶内での継続した二次非線形性の影響
・PPLN20の二次または三次の非線形性の虚数部に起因する影響
・PPLN20内での高次の非線形性間での相互作用に起因する影響
などである。これ以降では、この非線形過程は、単に「和周波発生様の周波数変換(SLF)」と呼ぶものとする。
前述の実施例の全てにおいて、もっとドーピングレベルが低いファイバーを使用した場合に比べて、これらの形式の増幅器の量子効率が減少するにもかかわらず、700〜1500ppmの間という比較的高いエルビウムのドーピングレベルが採用されている。このような高いドーピングレベルにより、採用されている増幅器の長さを最小化することが可能になる。パルス幅100フェムト秒でエネルギー1nJのパルスは、10kWのピークパワーを持つので、コア径の大きな増幅器を使用したとしても、たった20〜30cmの長さのファイバーで本質的な非線形性が実現される。さらに、パルス幅100フェムト秒のパルスは、増幅ファイバー11内で三次分散の影響を受ける。したがって、パルスの質を最良にし、得られるパルス幅を最小化することは、増幅システムの長さを最小化する上で有用である。しかしながら、一般的に言って、増幅システムの長さはあまり短すぎてもいけない。なぜならば、本質的なパルスの短縮化が可能であるためには、少なくともワンセットの高次のソリトン圧縮が起こることが保証される必要があるからである。実際に、増幅器の非線形性があまりに小さいと、図5に示すように、負分散ファイバー内での自己位相変調がパルスの拡散につながってしまうのである。
